🔻Mojgani: At the moment, we do not have a plan to increase gasoline prices to 1,500 and 3,000 tomans

Fatemeh Mojgani said the government currently does not have a plan to raise the price of gasoline to 1,500 and 3,000 tomans.

The government spokesperson, at a weekly press conference, emphasized that “any increase in government revenues resulting from price increases will be directly used for people’s livelihood, meaning through the cash voucher.”

She said that any decision to change prices will be announced before it is implemented.

This is while, in the past few days, the government has formed a special working group with “full authority” for “reviewing and correcting the prices of energy carriers.”

When announcing this news, the Iranian government said it formed this working group at the joint proposal of the Planning and Budget Organization and the Ministry of Oil, and that this working group can take action to adjust rates and quotas for different sectors.
